Admire the twice millenium bridge "Pont du Gard" build by the Romans and enjoy a stunning sightseeing tour of Nîmes and Orange. Orange, nicknamed the City of Princes, is a crossing point for the north, Spain or Italy, in the heart of a rich agricultural region, makes it a prime location for the Romans from which finds many vestiges, mainly around the Saint-Eutrope hill and the old theater. Continue to The Pont du Gard, a Roman aqueduct with three levels probably built in the first half of the 1st century to ensure the continuity of the Roman aqueduct who drove water from Uzès to Nîmes. Last but not least explore Nîmes, an important outpost during the Roman Empire. It is known for its well-preserved monuments, such as the Nîmes Arena, a two-storey amphitheater built around AD 70, still in use for concerts and bullfights. If time allows it, I will bring you to the medieval pretty city of Uzes at the tremendous "Place aux herbes" for a great lunch in a restaurant I can recommend.
Olivier, Yesterday’s tour to Uzes, Nimes and Pont du Gard was wonderful. Lots to see and learn about the Romans. You have a great knowledge about the history of the Romans in that area. It’s lots of fun touring with you. Thanks for a great day.Best regards, Patricia
Olivier was outstanding! He is a wonderful driver and photographer. He worked hard to get just the right picture of us at Pont du Gard. We enjoyed our time thoroughly with Olivier!
Olivier gave us a great tour of the city of Nimes. He made it a point to drop us off before parking his vehicle, and then left us at a very pleasant location while he picked up the vehicle. This was particularly helpful since my wife uses a wheelchair when we travel and we wanted to minimize walking. Before visiting Pont du Gard he took us to a very nice restaurant in a quiet village at a very scenic location. His English is excellent.
Our tour was exactly what we were looking to do. Olivier, our driver, was very knowledgeable and knew the highlights in each area. He was a good driver as well.
